While the fins were drying I started on the numbers that go on the side of the rocket. First I cut them out of the decal sheet and set them aside.
Of course, by "decal sheet" I mean, "instruction sheet". They're just paper, but this works great for this model!
The numbers, I, II, III, and IIII are glued to the side of the model, on the left edge of every black section near the bottom. I wanted them all to be at a uniform height so I made a guide from the card stock sheet. There was no specific height given so I eyeballed it and cut a notch that I would used to set the numbers on top of. Then I poured a small puddle of white glue on a scrap piece of card stock, dipped the back into the glue with tweezers, and placed it on the rocket using the height guide I made.
After a few minutes all the numbers were on the rocket at the same height all the way around. Hooray!
